Hi all, maybe it is a stupid question, but can debian packages be installed in other places than / ?
I know that when the package is compiled the Makefile has a $DESTDIR attribute, but is this preserved in the deb package? This issue came up when i tried to convince someone that debian packages are a good addition to tar.gz for distribution... but one argument he gave, was the question if non-root users could install debian packages? Is this possible? Egon
